Beauty By Nature

Thanks for any coment.

I checked your portfolio and this is certainly your strongest botanical. You've caught the very antic line of the blossom, and developed it in an interesting way--the two deep separations at the top dividing the whole into three lobes create a lot of excitement, and the central volute seems very dimensional in spite of the flat lighting and diffused tonality. The idea that roses have personality makes sense only to a rosarian, which I am not--but this one has personality in spades!
